Description

Laser constant-temperature welding control system and method
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of constant-temperature laser soft solder welding, and particularly relates to a laser constant-temperature welding control system and method.
Background
Laser brazing is a brazing technique in which laser is used as a heat source to heat and melt brazing filler metal, and laser brazing filler metal welding is divided into soft brazing filler metal and hard brazing filler metal welding. Solder has a liquidus temperature lower than 450 ℃ and is called soldering, and is mainly used for connecting electronic components of a printed circuit board. The laser radiation is used to heat the lead wire of the integrated circuit, and the heat is transferred to the substrate through soldering flux or preset solder. When the temperature reaches the soldering temperature, the soldering flux and the solder melt, and the substrate and the lead are wetted to form a connection. The laser soft soldering integrated circuit adopts YAG laser emitter, semiconductor optical fiber coupling laser emitter and low-power optical fiber laser emitter.
Constant temperature laser soldering technology is generally designed around an infrared temperature sensor, all of which adopt non-contact temperature measurement and control laser output power through similar PID, neural network or automatic feedback adjustment thereof. When the temperature of the welding spot is higher than a set value, automatically reducing the laser power; and when the temperature of the welding spot is lower than the set value, the laser power is automatically increased. Such constant temperature welding has in principle a number of significant drawbacks. First, there is a large difference between the measured temperature and the actual temperature in the non-contact infrared thermometry, the difference depending on the emissivity of the measured material. Emissivity is the ability of an object being measured to emit infrared energy, which is characteristic of the temperature of the object. Color, composition, liquid or solid state, surface structure, etc. will greatly affect emissivity. There is a substantial change in emissivity during the solid to liquid conversion process during soldering. The emissivity of solid solder is typically significantly higher than that of liquid solder, and therefore the infrared energy emission capability of liquid solder decreases, and the measured temperature also follows the decrease. At the moment, the laser power is dynamically increased under the action of a feedback control loop to compensate the apparent temperature drop; and the actual temperature of the liquid solder may have reached the ignition point after it has been irradiated with the higher energy laser. In addition, the welding out-of-control stage after reaching the ignition point can generate visible light to flash fire, the infrared emission wavelength can enter the near infrared section, and the real temperature of the welding spot can not be accurately measured due to the fact that the infrared emission wavelength is likely to exceed the measuring range of the infrared temperature sensor.
In patent CN201711364680.5, a method and a system for controlling the safety of laser welding based on infrared temperature measurement and variable emissivity are adopted, wherein the method can dynamically adjust the emissivity according to the solder state to ensure accurate temperature measurement. However, this approach still suffers from several drawbacks in practice. The three sensors required in the original method are a visible light sensor, an infrared temperature sensor and a laser sensor respectively, wherein the visible light sensor, the infrared temperature sensor and the welding laser separate reflected laser and temperature infrared energy from the reflected laser through two spectroscopes. However, the original scheme has the following problems: firstly, the two spectroscopes are found to be too complex in wavelength composition to be transmitted and reflected, so that the two spectroscopes cannot be produced, or only the transmittance of working laser can be preferentially considered, and the two spectroscopes have very large attenuation on other wavelengths such as infrared light, visible light and the like; at the same time, the two reflectors need to reduce the actual working distance of the laser focusing head, and if the designed working distance is increased, the focal diameter may become larger, so that a small workpiece cannot be welded. Secondly, the reflective laser sensor adopts a paraxial arrangement, and the sensor needs to be exactly aligned with the laser focus when in implementation, but the actual operation is very difficult; and thirdly, in the control system of the original scheme, after the measured temperature is acquired, the laser transmitter is driven after calculation is carried out only through the PID automatic control unit, and when the PID generates overshoot due to the self parameters, higher laser power is output, and then the feedback loop is waited for reducing the laser power again to reduce the welding temperature, at least a plurality of control calculation periods are needed. During this time, due to the abnormal rise of temperature, the welding material is likely to have spontaneous combustion, and even if the laser power is reduced, combustion continues to generate great potential safety hazards; fourth, the emissivity of the infrared temperature sensor adopted in the original scheme must be adjustable, but there are few devices which can meet the requirements in the actual market, so the purchasing of the devices is greatly limited.

One embodiment of the method of the present invention is described below.
The first laser cavity mirror 104, the pump source 105 and the second laser cavity mirror 106 together form a laser emitter light source, wherein the first laser cavity mirror 104 is theoretically totally reflecting for laser light, the second laser cavity mirror 106 is theoretically partially reflecting for laser light, the laser light is output to the laser focusing head 107 through the second laser cavity mirror 106, the laser light emitted by the laser focusing head 107 is focused to a welding point position through the second beam splitter 115, and when the laser light irradiates on the welding point, part of the laser light is necessarily reflected back into the laser focusing head 107 according to the principle of reversibility of an optical path.
Since the actual reflectivity of the first laser cavity mirror 104 cannot reach 100%, the still weak light beam can pass through the first laser cavity mirror 104 into the beam splitter 1. Based on this principle, after the laser light reflected from the welding point passes through the laser focusing head 107, the reflected laser light and visible light may also enter the first beam splitter 103 through the laser emitter light source. As shown in fig. 2.
The first spectroscope 103 splits the light beam leaked through the first laser cavity mirror 104 into two paths, one path enters the reflective light sensor 101 after passing through the first optical filter 102, and the other path enters the visible light sensor 108 after passing through the second optical filter 109.

The visible light passes through the second beam splitter 115, the laser focusing head 107, the second laser cavity mirror 106, the pump source 105, the first laser cavity mirror 104, the first beam splitter 103, and the second optical filter 109, and then enters the visible light sensor 108. The first comparator 111 receives the output signal of the visible light sensor 108, a preset solder burning detection threshold B is stored in the first comparator 111, and when the input value of the first comparator 111 is greater than the preset solder burning detection threshold B, the output signal end of the first comparator 111 outputs a control signal to control the laser driver 112 to stop the output of the laser driver immediately so as to achieve the purpose of stopping laser.
The infrared light emitted by the welding point enters the infrared temperature sensor 114 after passing through the second beam splitter 115, the second comparator 113 receives the temperature signal measured by the infrared temperature sensor 114, the second comparator 113 compares the measured temperature value of the infrared temperature sensor 114 with a set safety temperature threshold, and when the measured temperature value of the infrared temperature sensor 114 is higher than the set safety temperature threshold, the output signal end of the second comparator 113 outputs a control signal to control the laser driver 112 to immediately stop supplying power to the pump source 105.
